Re: Talking Point: Did You Enjoy Sony's Latest State of Play Livestream?

@KidBoruto Right, like people have been saying it was trash and awful but in the same post they also say that there were a handful of things they were interested in. In a small 20 minute presentation like this, that handful is like, 40% or 50% of the whole thing. Of course you won't like every game shown; that goes for any event. So while I think that there probably could have been a better selection prepared for the showcase, it was okay at worst and potentially even great at best if you're someone who's super invested in niche series like KoF or Star Ocean or you just really vibed with one of the new games shown.

I was happy to see Death's Door coming to PS5. The new update to Bugsnax is cool, especially for being free. Might get me to pick the game up. A new Star Ocean game is neat, it's definitely more of a niche series and the trailer seemed a little lacking in polish but I'm interested in seeing more. And Little Devil Inside looks fantastic.

Other than that I don't think anything that was shown was better than mediocre looking. There was a long ass trailer for some band I've never heard of that was selling a video game about themselves. Came off as more annoying than anything else. Something like that REALLY needs actual gameplay if you genuinely want people to care.

Overall I was pretty disappointed with the show. Guardians of the Galaxy could be really cool but when I was watching the trailer on my phone it looked super janky, though that could have just been the stream lagging. Stranger in Paradise looks goofy as hell and I'm kind of excited to check out the demo here soon. Babylon's Fall might have been worthwhile but I found myself tuning that out because I was listening to the show at that point rather than watching it and I'll probably check out the trailers for that on their own later. Other than those things nothing else really interested me at all. I was really hoping to see more of Triangle Strategy, Dragon Quest, or FF 16.
